just your filter sponge and hand.
What do you guys with small 1 - 1.5 ft tanks use to clean the glass of algae? Most of the magnet cleaners I see out there are quite large...

Agreed!!
If not just get those small toothbrush to scrap off...

There's a thing as an algae scraper.
If you've learnt, teach, if you have, give.
Don't walk behind me as I might not lead, don't walk in front of me as I might not follow. Walk beside me, as my friend.

You can also try any plastic cards. Eg. Old credit card, membership card, etc.
Size Small GEX Magnetic Cleaner Float for the win!Originally Posted by MbmC
Smallest one I've found with a decent size magnet, and floating is a must...you can actually guide it back to the window without getting your hands wet.
I picked mine up from Polyart for around $6 - $8 If I recall correctly.
My only complaint is these don't handle curved corners well, but then again I've never seen a small float that does.
Problem is I don't really like putting my hands into the tank. Tends to stir up 'crap', literally. GEX magnetic cleaner? Might be something worth looking at.
But I swore never to go back to Polyart after a bad experience with them. So anyone seen this cleaner anywhere else?
you can try seaview or NA, GEX comes in XS size too.. real cute!
oh noes! there's an XS size?? Smallest I've seen was the S, I need to go hunting for one now...
I'm guessing they are for the tiny Gex Genoah Betta tanks...
Hmm I've never had problems with Polyart (ok some of their product has been sitting on the shelf for quite awhile) but they've always been
good to me. I only go during crazy weird hours though (usually after 2am) the uncle that used to work night shift is really cool.
I think he has since rotated back to day shift, maybe can give them another chance and try.
it is the SS size. they are selling it for $9. (or am I not suppose to state?) Anyway, it is just two magnets with an abrasive side.
SS size huh? Can do, will hunt around for that. Need 2 pieces, or does anyone wanna sell his?
I had problems with the attitude of the night staff at polyart, the fellow who has some problems with his eyes (not to be discriminatory here, just descriptive), just happened to piss me off with his mightier than thou attitude.
To each his own anyway!
I would just get it and not think about the purchase anymore. We should not have to fuss over these things.
sorry for the late reply.. missed this thread..
yup its SS size, I got mine at seaview for around 1 red note (think they gave 15% off for accessories). Vaguely remember seeing it at NA recently.
i was looking to order the nimble nano..i think it looks very cool n the other side is slimmer easiler to move around than the gex one

Glad you found it. The nimble looks nice but such novelty items I would not pay for. Maybe if I start making my own...
